ANAHEIM, Calif. — The creative juices wouldn’t stop flowing for Huntington Beach’s Dirty Heads as they were recording the 10-track album “Midnight Control,” which debuted in the Top 10 on Billboard’s alternative albums chart last year. Vocalist Jared Watson also described it as one of the best albums the band has written.
The quintet was on such a musical high during those recording sessions that the creativity spilled over into 2023 in the form of a trio of EPs comprised of songs that came out of making the last studio album.
Dirty Heads recorded a total of 14 songs for the new album and decided to hold back four tracks to later release an EP.
